About Victoria and Jonny Speers

Victoria and Jonny have 2 daughters, Lottie and Poppy aged 8 and 7. We live in London but go to Italy as much as work and school will allow us. Victoria studied Italian at University and worked and lived in Italy for a number of years and speaks Italian fluently.

Victoria and Jonny Speers purchased this house in 2004
Why Victoria and Jonny Speers chose Cisternino

We wanted to buy a house in Italy and after much research came across Puglia as a potential region. We came on holiday when Lottie was just 8 weeks old and after viewing 20 properties, we fell in love with Trullo Papavero due to its setting and the potential we saw in it. We spent a year refurbishing it and putting in the pool and then spent each year doing more and more to it and to the land to create our perfect holiday home.

What makes this house unique

The views are spectacular and it is in a very peaceful location. The grounds, the pool are all stunning and the house is spacious and cool even in the hot months. It can fit 2 families very comfortably and we have spent many mild evenings sitting on the terrace drinking wine and eating BBQ food with our friends!

Notes: Although the house is attached to another house, it is attached at the back of the house and therefore cannot be seen from the house or grounds. The owners of the attached house only use it for a few weeks of the year. We have young children and so have ensured that the house and land is safe for young children although we would recommend that you are vigilant as there are large drops around the swimming pool. We can also provide 2 cots, 2 high chairs, changing mat, potty, bottle warmer, sterilizer, stair gates and there are toys and books suitable for young children. There is also a swing and slide for young children in the garden. The infinity swimming pool is 10 metres long and 5 metres wide at its widest. It starts at 1 metre deep and goes to 2 metres deep. The water flows over a wall into a waterfall and falls into a crescent shaped 'baby' pool 2 metres below which is just 0.5 metres deep. There are plenty of sun terraces with parasols and seating. There is free WiFi in the house
